    Interesting… looks like the “weather canada” google search query no longer returns weather results. The “weather north america” one does though.

    No wonder the polar ice caps are melting if it’s 17 degrees up there. Mind you, it didn’t say which Mon it was talking about.

    I dunno. What are you complaining about? It’s bound to be partly sunny and/or cloudy and/or raining *somewhere* in Canada, eh? In fact, based on my summer holiday in Vancouver/Victoria this year, it’s likely to do that all in one day in BC!
